I was also given the opportunity to try the new kernel (thanks alot btw!) and here is my numbers:

Reads are now actually lower than with the previous kernel

Any ideas as to what is causing these low numbers, I'm all ears!
Update: If i set the number of frames back to 2000 (the parameter for diskwriggler) I get the following:

Does that make sense? Is this a RAM size issue? If I transfer an 800MB file through FTP the actual numbers are wayyy lower (30MB/s reads & writes). If i I do a simple file copy in windows explorer the reads are 30MB/s and writes are 20MB/s. How does DW numbers compare to FTP & SMB numbers?
